- Henry Perley was born on February 17, 1755 in Boxford, Massachusetts. During his minority he was living in Stoughton, Mass. He left a manuscript of his Revolutionary experience, from which we gather the following: On the morning of 19 Apr 1775, he marched to the battle of Lexington, in Capt. Asahel Smith's company, of Stoughton, attached to Col. Lemuel Robinson's regiment. He served nine days and received £12 10s. 4d. He then enlisted in the service, in Capt. William Bent's company, Col. John Greaton's regiment, where he remained till his term of service expired, 31 Dec. The next day he enlisted again in Capt. Bent's company for one year, and was stationed at Fort No. 2, in Cambridge. About the 18th of March they were ordered to New York, via Connecticut. They shipped at Norwich, sailed to Long Island, and marched to New York. There they encamped about three weeks, when they were ordered to Canada via Albany. The division was commanded by Gen. Thompson, who died at Chambly of small-pox. The troops were ordered over a great part of Lower Canada. Most of the army being sick with small-pox, they were obliged to retreat before the enemy, leaving their sick and languishing upon the ground. They retreated to Ticonderoga, and when the regiment was ordered to Mt. Independence, Mr. Perley, who was sick with intermittent fever, was discharged, 1 Nov 1776, by order of Gen. Gates, commander. He then came home to Boxford, where he remained some time, and was a member of Capt. Jacob Gould's company. On 31 Jul 1778, he was ordered to Rhode Island, where he served six months in Gen. Sullivan's expedition in the company of Capt. Simeon Brown of Salem, Col. Wade's regiment, Marquis de Lafayette's division. They were afterwards disbanded. In the year 1779, he belonged to the company of Jeremiah Putnam of Danvers, Col. Tyler's regiment, and was stationed at Providence till the enemy left Newport. This regiment occupied Newport till the expiration of their term of service 5 Jan 1780. For his service, he was granted a pension.2
- He was the son of Maj. Asa Perley and Susannah Low.1
- Henry married Eunice Hood on October 27, 1781 in Andover, Massachusetts.3
- About 1786, Henry Perley moved to Boxford, Massachusetts. The house here pictured was built about 1754 by Joseph Matthews. Mr. Perley bought the estate about 1786 and "settled down to a life of repose." He died there, and his son Henry occupied the place till he also died there. Then Maj. Moses R. Rust rented it, occupying it twenty years. From that time it fell into "innocuous desuetude," except an occasional dweller, till it became quite untenantable. It was demolished in 1883.4
- Henry married Mehitable Peabody on October 30, 1799.4
- August, 1822, in answering a letter received from the widow of his brother Eliphalet, concerning Eliphalet's death, he says, "I can mourn with you as one that mourneth. . . . I have been carried through troubles, and have been supported when I was almost overwhelmed with sorrow. ... I am an old man and cannot expect to tarry long on the stage of human affairs. . . . God's tender mercies are over all the work of his hands; and I hope that He who hath made us will have mercy upon us."
Mr. Perley was five feet and four inches in height; his complexion was dark with black hair and black eyes; and his physique was compact and muscular, and capable of extreme endurance.
The only town office of importance that was held by him was surveyor of highways in 1800 and 1810.5 - Henry died on February 6, 1838 at age 82. His remains repose in the cemetery near the First Church edifice.6

The listing for Huldah in this book says, "Her remains are entombed with her uncle Thomas-(60), in Harmony Cemetery." Huldah did have an uncle Thomas, but the family number "60" refers to Huldah's first cousin. He was, however, nearly sixty years older than Huldah, and so this could account for the use of the word "uncle."
